I find it... funny that a core reason they're citing as a reason Intel is better than M1 is that "it can play a bigger library of games". Great, you made an x8

Great, you made an x86 chip, that's not inherently a reason that your chip is better. Once most software is written for ARM then you will fall by the wayside.
- koirapoika 6y agoYeah, this really sounds to me like a sunset of x86 hegemony with such arguments. Not to belittle the game market, of course. It's huge. The hybrid chips they're planning to release are unlikely to be cheap. We'll see. Also, not every x86 software needs to be ported, given the available alternatives and cross-compile features. Interesting times. :)
- rbanffy 6y agoIt's remarkably amusing because it's one of the reasons some Windows users use to point out their superiority over Linux. It's doubly funny because the M1 is able to play the vast library of games already available for iPads and iPhones.
